Let me be the voice of the other side of the coin. You often hear about the bad wholesalers and the deals gone wrong.
Like plane crashes, you never hear about planes that safely landed. If you only keep a look out for when planes crash you will be terrified to fly in a plane.
Yes be aware and learn from the bad apples out there, but also be aware that bad occurrences don't make wholesaling bad. Like a feller aboive me said. know what you are doing before you actually do it.
I have a solid track record of sellers inviting me for dinners after the deal went through, as we helped them get out of a pickle no real estate agent could fix. Plenty of times. Now imagine if EVERYONE started sharing their wholesale deals gone right. It would bring wholesaling in an entirely different light.

Jerryll now I am going to take the other other side of the coin.. As Broker for Ahem 49 years :) I submit there is no deal that you can do that I cannot and same with many experienced agents.
And I submit there are deals I can do that you simply could not because U and the vast majority of wholesalers simply dont have the depth and breadth of experience as I do or many pro's on this site have..
Wholesalers over promise and under deliver all the time. And while some are pretty sharp thats not the norm far from it.. I mean I close a lot of deals with wholesalers on them and most of the time they are just flaying away and if it was not for me bringing the deals back to center they would never close.
so thats my side of the coin.
Maybe,
For one:
keep this in mind. You have been doing it longer, but that doesn't mean you are better! There is a big difference.
Then second, this was never a battle between you and me. This is not even a debate about, which individual is better than the other. This is not even about whether or not wholesalers are bad vs good.
This is simply about, and please focus: "not because you constantly hear horror stories about whoelsale deals gone wrong does it mean wholesaling is bad, or wholesalers are bad, or that people shouldn't do wholesaling."
Remember this is a concept you don't seem to understand.
To disprove your theory that bigfoot can't or doesn't exist, all I have to do is show that ONE exists and your theory falls apart.
And that is the only thing I did.
All these stories about bad wholesalers and wholesale deals have the haters constantly ham,mer this forum that wholesaling is bad, don't you do it.
Well, all I have to do to prove wholesaleing is not bad is show one case that a wholesale deal helped someone where an agent couldn't and I win.
Now let's take your case.
You do the exact opposite
What you did was prove that you, and specifically you, can do anything a wholesaler does, doesn't at all prove that all agents or all people can do what a wholesaler can offer.
In other words, All dogs are animals, sure, but that doesn't imply all animals are dogs.
So I give you this, very nice try, but nope, you are factually and scientifically wrong here my friend!
Again, let's assume you can do whatever I can do (I highly doubt that), that doesn't mean what you are trying to prove here is correct. Again, the debate is not about "hey I can do this.. so that implies, everyone can solve the problems that wholesalers can solve.
Again do not let years of experience (doing it right, or wrong) lead you to believe you are good at something. I am not saying you are not good at this. All I am saying you are not "better than me" because you have been doing this longer. All that means is that you are probably just older than me, and maybe have more money than me. But that is pretty much all you can conclude. Doing it longer doesn't make you smarter than me, or more tech-savvy than me, or more resourceful than me ;)
Capiche?
;)
Then I don't care about who is better enough to make this a big deal honestly. All I am saying is don't let all these horror stories scare you (all the new people out there).
peace out.
